dover Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I live in Elko, about 120 miles East of Winnemucca. It got dusty here about an hour ago. The wind can blow here that's for sure. That's too bad about the traffic accidents. Hopefully no one was seriously injured. Have a safe rest of your trip.Ben Quote 1962 B733 L cab Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31523-i-80-closed/#findComment-188107 Share on other sites More sharing options...
